[Thos. f. Creed in Yreka (Cal.) Union.

IThos. f. Creed in Yreka (Cal.) Union.
Tonight as I sit by the blazing fire
While sad winds whistle and coldly
blow,
The golden rhyme OF the olden time
Whispers to me OF long ago.
The beautiful days my cherished friend
Of the sad sweet past and the charms
they throw,
With the stormy night now strangely blind
With the balmy time OF long ago.
Which shr0ud me at once in the Gather
ing Gloom -
They flicker and play Oh the darkening
wall
Like ghosts of tie dead around the tomb.
These shadows have fallen about my heart
Like cloud of gloom o 'er the bottomless
deep,
And the ghosts of the beautiful past upstart
And gaze i'll my face with calm deceit
Time with its mystical onward flight
Has brought these changes toyou and me,
Those days OF the past that once were bright
Have changed with our fated destiny.
! And now | have wandered afar away
| And lifes chill winds now coldly blow
For the beautiful past like golden day
| Was spent with you III the long ago.
The wild, wild storm and the sea birds
| scream,
The Iashing waves and the groaning piers
Float back the wreck of a vanished dream
| TO me tonight and the ocean OF years.
| wish the raging storm Tonight
! Would bear me swift as the winds thai
blow
! Der the roaring deep in It's mad, wild flight
To YOU and the Isle of Long Ago.

THE COURT HOUSE.

The completion of the new court
house has been delayed by the iron
work. The senior of the contractors,
and the most active man of the irm,
was taken sick soon after the work was
commenced, aud has not since been able
to give the work any attention. The
delay, no doubt, is attributable wholly
to that fact. The tower work is now
delaying the building. The material,
originally, was to be furnished by the
Pottsville iron and steel company, but
owing to delays there the work was
afterward given to the Carnegie iron
works, of Pittsburgh, and on Tuesday
all concerned we're gratilied at receiv-
ing telegram announcing the compile
tion of the work. 1t will be here in a
short time, and then everything will be
pushed forward to completion. The
tower, however, will be big job. 1t
will reach 10 feet bove the sidewalk.

HEAVY STORM AT BRIDGEPORT,

RAILROAD TRACK WASHED OUT-sERI-
Gus DAMAGES AT WHEELING.
The heaviest rainfall ever known at
Bridgeport occurred on Monday after
noon, approaching water,spout in its
force and terrors. The waters roared
and rushed from the hills1des with great
velocity aud irresistible force, carrying
everything in the way. The cutters
were wholly inadequate, and the streets
and many cellers were filled At one
place the track of the Cleveland, Lorain
& Wheeling Il. r. was struck by tor
rent from the hillside, and the track and
roadbed carried away as quick and as
clean as though Niagara's rapids had
shot through it. The st. Clairsville
train was delayed about one hour, until
a temporary track could he laid.
Over at Wheeling and east and north
of there the rainfall was likewise heav
ier than ever known, and considerable
damage resulted from flooded cellars and
damaged goods in parts of the city.
For few moments parts of the Island
resembled lake.
